00:19.58 CIA-13 BRL-CAD: search for the tcl/tk stub libraries too, and utilize them accordingly if
00:19.58 CIA-13 BRL-CAD: someone asks for a system tcl or tk. for now, presume that tcl+tclstub and
00:19.58 CIA-13 BRL-CAD: tk+tkstub always exist together or at least that it'll link regardless.
00:34.56 CIA-13 BRL-CAD: 03brlcad * 10brlcad/src/bwish/main.c: modify the auto_path as soon as we have the tcl interpreter so that even resources like tk.tcl may be found when mixing system/non-system tcl with other system/non-system components

12:24.26 d_rossberg what's the plan with HAVE_CONFIG_H ?
12:25.14 d_rossberg you need it for every brlcad application, e.g. http://brlcad.org/rtexample.c
12:30.03 d_rossberg this define causes trouble for the users (developers are used to trouble)
13:46.44 learner d_rossberg, the plan for it is to have it go away completely on an install, same for brlcad_config.h, like it is supposed to
13:48.23 learner i believe i now have it so that the header file isn't used in common.h if it's installed so that brlcad_config.h may be left uninstalled
13:48.33 learner but haven't fully checked
13:59.28 learner even with the rtexample.c application, it only uses common.h -- which is supposed to hide the detail of whether you have the define or not and make it so that the config.h doesn't need to be installed for it to work
14:00.13 learner this was broken for a few releases, requiring you to either provide the define, or add the header, or add a search dir
14:00.30 learner shouldn't be the case on cvs head now though
14:13.38 d_rossberg rtexample.c includes raytrace.h which includes bu.h which uses the time_t type which requires time.h which is only included if HAVE_TIME_H is defined so "config.h" is required
14:15.33 ``Erik fucking fuckity fuck fuck fuck
14:17.46 d_rossberg lerner: your goal is to distinguish between internal and external declarations
14:18.18 d_rossberg common.h should provide the internal declarations only if required
14:21.40 ``Erik sean, is justin there?
14:21.50 learner d_rossberg: yes, a mistake in the bu.h header really
14:22.04 learner ``Erik: i dunno
14:22.14 ``Erik oh, you're not in the office, ok
14:22.23 ``Erik I'm thinking about suckering someone into driving me around to buy a new car
14:22.29 ``Erik *sigh*
14:22.32 learner heh
14:22.42 ``Erik I blew the tranny out on my truck this morning
14:23.26 d_rossberg lernaer: what's the mistake, the time_t or the ifdef HAVE_TIME_H?
14:23.33 learner d_rossberg: yes, that is the goal, and config.h is definitely a private header .. bu.h and other headers need to be fixed to remove the HAVE_ defines and system header includes if possible
14:24.21 learner d_rossberg: probably both
14:24.43 learner the ifdef is fine really, it just can't require what's in the ifdef
14:25.28 learner well, half-fine -- bad things might then happen if a user provides HAVE_ defines and our header's logic doesn't behave
14:25.35 ``Erik hey, sean, wanna take the day off, hang with a bud, and cruise by car sales lots? :D *Duck*
14:25.55 learner heh
14:26.39 learner possibly, though I can't take a day off this week .. already did :)
14:27.04 ``Erik ah, and since you're contractor, I don't think I can donate leave to you
14:28.51 ``Erik 6.2 miles... about 2 hrs
14:31.40 d_rossberg lerner: at the moment, it looks like you need this defines
14:32.31 d_rossberg lerner: hiding the internal structures, e.g. casts to void*, requires a large amount of work
14:37.13 learner d_rossberg: i agree, but i do believe it to be the right long-term direction
14:37.24 learner or do you have another idea? :)
14:38.42 learner they should certainly work for internal, which they do now -- it's of course the public external header appearance that will take a fair bit of restructuring
14:39.06 learner as I mentioned in the dev e-mail, the bigger problem in my view is the dependency ordering of the headers now
14:39.30 learner e.g. *have* to include machine.h before anything, should include vmath.h before raytrace.h, etc
14:40.05 learner the headers don't function stand-alone, and that I do believe needs fixing
14:42.17 d_rossberg learner: that's the classical direction (bringing object orientation into c code)
14:43.08 d_rossberg from my own experiance i can say: it ends with c++ classes :)
14:45.39 d_rossberg but for now i'll start with adapting "my" projectfiles
14:47.48 ``Erik phrack
